Good Sunday morning all! I have done the
Rose Flower Square as a proper stained glass styled card for today's offering. I cut the
Rose Flower Square out of black card and glued it to a piece of acetate. From the reverse side, I filled it the rose with glue then covered it with
Lava red polished silk glitter. The leaves were done with green glitter and the background was the last area to be filled in with
Sparkle Star glitter. I set it aside to dry overnight. I added a white backing to it once dry, then glued it to the centre of a piece of sky blue card. I made two thin frames for it using the
Double Stitched Squares and added them around the flower with mounting foam. The card was completed with white, sky blue and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now. Sue x

Morning Sue.
Thank you, a beautiful card.
I love the way a small die can make a big statement and ,larger card.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Beautiful, sparkling card. Really striking.
Morning Sue. Absolutely gorgeous. Stained glass, pixie powder background and all sorts made for this die, the biggest thing that made me smile is that I CAN paper piece with such ease with these dies, the 3 teensy weensey middle pieces are a struggle for me but I get there eventually lol. I'm looking forward to completing the full collection as they are so gorgeous, and quick to make batch cards of all sizes. I hope your Sunday is a lovely Sunday xxx
Hello Sue, a beautiful card with stained glass effect and the rose die is gorgeous. You've set it off with the borders around it too. Enjoy your weekend xx
Hi Sue
A beautiful card. I must try this with my Iris Flower Square.

Morning Sue and all wilsonettes, I so love these stained glass samples and the rose is so beautiful with all the bling and glitter on it, perfect for Mothers day which is this month, sadly my Mum is no longer with us, but I do have 3 sons's so here's hoping.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue
Absolutely gorgeous. The rose looks stunning with the blue background. Really makes it pop.
The Flower Square dies are all lovely as well as being so versatile. Small cards - no problem, CAS cards - no problem and even large and much more elaborate cards - no problem at all. Whatever you throw at them ( glitter, crystal tints, pixie powders to name but a few), they will not let you down!
Happy Sunday everyone

Good Morning Sue. Lovely sample today Sue. Although I have to say I am not a fan of the stained glass technique.... you have made this look absolutely gorgeous. The colours are beautiful. And by leaving it free from any wording gives us choices to use any one of your new sentiment dies. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.

Very pretty I bought a couple of your flower dies last week and intend to get the others when pennies allow
I have never tried using glitter like this but I will have a go
Good morning Sue,
A gorgeous card Sue and I love your assortment of colours, I'm sure that cards like these can be made in different sizes and be great for those who make cards to sell.
It may be a while before my next comment as tomorrow I have my hip replacement.
Love to all.

Gorgeous card-classy & elegant.

Hi Sue,
Fabulous card, and the red goes just right with the blue and white. You know me, I would have used black, thereby not going out of my comfort zone. I shall consider this colour combo in future......
Hugs, Rose
Hi Sue. Lovely card today. I have always loved the effect that you get by using glitter on the reverse of acetate. The nice thing is that you get all the sparkle without the glitter shedding everywhere and the only downside is that you have to wait a while for it to dry. All good things come to those who wait I suppose.

Lovely centre stained glass rose and lovely border but I’m not sure they go together. Maybe a different colour background on the border? Sorry!

Hi Sue, a beautiful card. I love the stain glass rose and all those frame layers draw my eye straight to the rose.
Hi Sue, I love this CAS card. The Rose looks stunning with the glitter and I like the slightly unusual colour combination of Sky Blue for the mat.
Frances
Hi Sue, your stained glass effects always look great whether its using paper piecing, glitter on acetate or using pixie powders.
A really elegant card and brilliant for 'thank you ' cards.
Have a lovely Sunday everyone.
Hugs xx Pauline in S.A.
Hi Sue

Great card, love the look of the silk glitter under the acetate! The rose is a delight as well your clean design!
Good afternoon Sue, beautiful card, love the glitter! Love Jean xxx
Love the focal die, not sure on the post - sorry - think it maybe the background colours but easily changeable - so will probably be having a go at this one...
Lovely :)
Love that as the centre piece, such lovely vibrant colour, a superb card in the finish...luv Ursula xx

Hi Sue this is a stunning card that rose is gorgeous and I love all the layers. Take care. Hugs Jackie
Beautiful stain glass rose done in glitters. You stayed in your lines perfectly with your glitter. My first attempt was not that good. Loving your high low frames drawing the eye to the flocal element, the lovely rose. Thanks for sharing.
I always love glitter to be encapsulated and staying in its place.Lovely way to get the sparkle without the shedding. Beautiful card as always.
Good Sunday afternoon,
